Post by DragonFury »

Well My 2011 PSE EVO bow is currently not shootable :(. I went out to shoot today and after shooting it I did a normal quick inspection of it (i dont always inspect after every shoot) and I noticed that it appears one my limbs is cracking....

Looks cracked to me. I take it to a bow shop and have it looked at to be sure.

no actually it was shooting just fine, and had no wired noises coming from it.

The guy at the archery shop told me that I must have dried fried it, or I was using way to light of arrows on it. I never dried fired it, and my arrows are typcially heavier then what he shoots. I typically stay with in the 450 Grain mark on my arrows he shoots 350 Grains or there abouts. IBO states do not shoot arrows that are less then 5 grains per bow weight, so 70 lbs = 350. I shoot 450 grain arrowss so i can say I good there.
